Encrypted communications is where data is rendered hard to read by an unauthorised party. Encryptions can be incredibly hard to break and due to this many government agencies have requested a back door be inserted to render the encryption easier to read once it had been received at its destination. Encryption would be considered secure is it is sufficiently programmed, sufficiently powerful and the keys are not intercepted. Encryption is often used to send secure information between parties. This is especially done in times of warfare, where instructions and plans are sent in the hope that the other side have not managed to break the encryption and read the secret messages.
